Hot on their heels, only 19 minutes later, were siblings Elizabeth and Letitia, with the pair Sioned and Fin coming next, and brothers Brian and Melvyn coming in fourth. Audiences have been witness to all the pairs being pushed to their limits throughout the races, with Sioned and Fin, the youngest duo, finding aspects of the journey particularly difficult.

Sioned explained to viewers of the BBC: "I think there were many times in India where I thought, 'I can't do this, I need to go home, not want to but I need to because this is too much'."
But she expressed her relief, saying, "But, I'm really glad I just stuck it out because experiencing it has been really valuable."

During a discussion with fellow racers, the now 20-year-old shared how the challenge had fostered personal growth.
She said: "It's built us as people. It's tough doing something like this in a relationship, but I do think it made us stronger."
Fin responded: "It was a good way to see if we can do it forever, or this isn't for us, let's split up. But that wasn't the case, we are still together, and we're going well. I think that was a big challenge and the best challenge we could've had together."

While Sioned and Fin may not have triumphed in the series, viewers were happy to see the mother-son duo take the win.

"We've learnt so much, we've enjoyed it, and to actually win it as well as to have the experience is the best thing that could have happened to us."
Tom said of the experience: "Doing the experience in itself is winning, but to actually get to that book first, open it, and see that it was empty was something that I'll remember for the rest of my life."
